1. Eat 4-6 small meals (instead of larger meals) each day.

2. Drink lemonade or lemon water.

3. Cook and freeze meals to reheat during times when you feel nauseous. Reheating causes fewer odors than cooking.

5. Take walks (when you can) to get fresh air.

You can also:

Eat bland, easy-to-digest foods that don’t have an odor.

Eat cool or frozen foods. These may have fewer odors than warmer foods.

Avoid foods that are spicy, fried, very greasy or very sweet.

Open the windows when possible to keep fresh air flowing. Use an overhead fan to decrease cooking odors.

Talk with your health care provider about some complementary and integrative therapies (such as acupressure, acupuncture, relaxation techniques, hypnosis, guided imagery and music therapy) that may help.

Some older studies show marijuana may be helpful for nausea and vomiting [40]. However, medical marijuana is not legal in every state.
